Dynamic Clay Double Wall System for Indoor Cooling
|
Supervisor: Prof. H.U. Halwatura Department: Civil Engineering Faculty: Engineering The usage of clay in construction is proven sustainable in environmental, social, and economic, yet personal meaningfulness, beyond increasing financial wealth aspects since its usage from the very beginning of human civilization. However, chauvinism on clay as a non-modern material needs novel innovations to fasten with modern architecture for a whole new perspective. |

The research thus investigated improving clay’s air conditioning characteristics, for tropical building interiors. As a result, the Dynamic Clay Double Wall System innovation proved to be an energy-efficient, low-cost, low-maintenance, and lightweight, sustainable, double walling solution for high-end to low-end, yet new construction to retrofitting opportunities in tropical interiors.
